As Google's official event photographers we captured the event as it unfolded. We kept our ears open and learned a lot too! Great event, huge turnout. Google really knows how to host an event.

Google hosted a free one day event at Tri-C's Hospitality Management Center on Public Square in Cleveland. Google staff held hands-on workshops about online marketing for small businesses, job-search strategies, email basics and search engine optimization.

The event was designed to help job seekers, small-business owners, budding developers, students, educators and entrepreneurs improve their digital skills.

The Grow with Googlewebsite includes several programs for teachers, students and those who want to improve their skills, career, or business. Google employees also travel to cities for in-person workshops.

Google is partnering on the event with a variety of community organizations, including DigitalC, Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority, Global Cleveland, Goodwill Industries of Greater Cleveland and Eastern Central Ohio, JumpStart Inc., Olivet Housing and Community Development Corporation and others.
